BEADING-CUTTER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No, 378,159, dated February 21, 1888 Application tiled October 5, 1887. Serial No. 251,519.

To all whom it may concern: 3

Be it known that I, JOHN HENRY ANTHONY, of Garland, Tipton county, Tennessee, have invented an Improved Bead-Cutter for VVood-,

\Vorlgof which the following is a specification.

The invention relates to the beading-tools employed on planer-cylinders to cut a high round bead, as contradistinguished from a flat one, on wooden material.

Figure 1 of the drawings is a plan view, Fig. 2 an elevation in perspective, and Fig. 3 an elevation, of the cylinder or cutter-head with the cutters attached. I

In the drawings, A represents the cutter, having the flat shank a in a plane at right angles to the plane of the cutter and openslotted at a, so as to allow it to be bolted to the planer-cylinder B by a bolt, G. Of the circular, parallel, and concentric lines I) c, the former indicates the line of cut and the latter the running-line, the two lines being preferably distant about the one-sixteenth of an inch from each other.

The cutter A is made of steel and in one piece with its flat shank a for strength, so that it will not be broken off by loose knots, pieces of board, or any other obstruction,

(No model.)

while its groove a will be limited by the thickness of the cutter and the size of the head which it is intended to cut. The groove a is not only longitudinally and transversely curved, but made high and round to correspond with the intended head.

The front end of the cutter is formed with a plane surface or face, a, intersecting the grooved working-face at a suitable angle to form with the edges of the groove the cuttingpoints a a In order to sharpen the cuttingpoints a cf, the surface a is filed down, thus causing the wear to be uniform and the shape of cutter to be preserved until it is used up.

\Vhat I claim as new, and desire to protect by Letters Patent, is-

The described heading-cutter provided with a shank for attachment to a cylinder, a grooved and longitudinal]y-curved working-face, and in front with a filing -face intersecting the groove and forming therewith cuttingpoints, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

JOHN HENRY ANTHONY.
